Ember Chime is a gentle hourly bell that helps you
pause, breathe, and return to the present moment - as often as
you choose.
Set your interval (5 minutes to several hours), pick a sound,
and let Chime ring quietly in the background while you live your
day. No distractions. No accounts. No internet required.

--- CORE FEATURES ---

⬡ Hourly Chime
Choose from preset intervals (5m, 15m, 30m, 1h, 2h) or set a
fully custom interval down to the minute. Align chimes to the
clock (:00, :15, :30) or run them relative to when you start.

🔔 Sound Selection
Five built-in sounds (Cink, Sanctus, Ave Maria, Compline, Death
Knell) ranging from subtle to ceremonial. Or load any audio file
from your device as a custom chime.

🌙 Night Silence
Set quiet hours so Ember Chime never disturbs your sleep.
Spiritual hour notifications can also respect the silence window.

☀ Sunrise & Sunset Awareness
Enter your location (or detect it automatically) and Ember Chime
displays today's sunrise and sunset times - and uses them to
calculate daylight-aware features.
